Meant to replace the LCD on Lulzbot Taz 4 / 5 / 6 with a BigtreeTech TFT35 v3.0. Remove the existing LCD and use the preinstalled M5 T slot nuts to secure the TFT_BottomNew.stl to the frame. Made the opening just big enough to be able to fit the wires in there, if you have trouble you can always add your own hole or make it bigger and install the wires before mounting it. Also included a version with M3 sized mounting holes for possible use in other 2020 extrusion based machines. The top cover screws into the bottom part with M2.5 screws self-threading them into the plastic. This works fine for me but if you prefer I'll include a version for M2.5 heatset inserts with a diameter of 3.8mm. * Made as a part of my Taz 5 SKR 1.4 Turbo Upgrade project. A cheaper (but more labor intensive) alternative to upgrading your machine to the less popular (less supported) Archim board. So don't ask how to connect the TFT35 to the Taz's stock RAMBO board (I don't think it's possible) * On the Taz the LCD backplate kind of acts as support for the frame so I would recommend adding an inside corner reinforcement like here or here as an example to make sure everything stays nice and square. Required Materials 2x M2.5 x 16mm Hex Socket Cap Screws 2x M2.5 x 12mm Hex Socket Cap Screws 3x M5 x 10-12mm Machine Screws (From old LCD) Notes / Afterthoughts 3D Printing is my passion and I hope this helps somebody out there as downloading designs online once helped me much. After a while I got tired of printing something and having it be a waste of filament because of a bad design, designer having different calibration, etc. So if you have any issues let me know. It only takes a few minutes for me to make a few changes and upload. If you want to help support my efforts to put more quality part designs on here hit the tip button in my profile. Thanks so much and hope everyone stays safe and healthy! Appreciate seeing my designs out in the wild so please do post makes!

Wanted to be an inventor since I was little, always taking things apart to see how they work. I originally got into 3d design in 2012 and would outsource the 3d prints, wasn't until 2015 when I got my first 3d printer a Lulzbot Taz 5 that I dove deep into the hobby. I got a small inheritance from my dearly departed grandmother which helped pay for it. So it is to grandma whom I dedicate all my designs to, without her love and guidance I wouldn't be the man I am today.
